RCV001184672 | SCV001350708 | uncertain significance | Hereditary cancer-predisposing syndrome | 2019-12-16 | criteria provided, single submitter | clinical testing | This missense variant replaces glutamic acid with valine at codon 78 of the MLH1 protein. Computational prediction suggests that this variant may have deleterious impact on protein structure and function (internally defined REVEL score threshold >= 0.7, PMID: 27666373). Splice site prediction tools suggest that this variant may not impact RNA splicing. An experimental study in yeast identified the variant using a genetic screen for inactivating mutations in MLH1 (PMID 15475387). This variant has not been reported in individuals affected with hereditary cancer in the literature. This variant has not been identified in the general population by the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). The available evidence is insufficient to determine the role of this variant in disease conclusively. Therefore, this variant is classified as a Variant of Uncertain Significance. |
